To Terminate a Fiber Cable

1.

Lay the required tools and components out on a
clean work surface. Begin by placing the cable
clamp about 10 inches from the end of the cable.
This will prevent the inner cable from being pulled
out as the cable is stripped.

3.

Set a connector with wedge clip into the
assembly tool.

NOTE: The wedge clip is engaged at shipment.

If it has become dislodged, squeeze the
top and bottom ensuring the wedge clip is
inserted into the connector body. A click
will be heard.
